CultureMap's ACL Foodie contest comes to a close with the help of Stubb's, LeoRondeau and Gowalla
https://www.leorondeau.net/Over 100 ACL fans, Gowalla users and CultureMap readers showed up at Stubb's last night for an early evening of uncharacteristically cool breezes, an "energetic but subtle" live show from Americana five-piece Leo Rondeau and Dynamite Tales and free tacos and quesadillas, compliments of the infamous Stubb's kitchen.
Over the past month, close to 200 people participated in our social-media driven "ACL Foodie" contest on Gowalla, challenging users to visit at least five vendors around town that will be present at the ACL Festival Food Court. 82 people completed the trip in perfect form (i.e., five Gowalla checks-ins, including photos of their orders) and were entered in a drawing to win a pair of VIP passes to ACL, several one-day passes to ACL and various giftcards to restaurants around town.
Leo generously shared the stage for drawings held throughout the evening, making a few incredibly lucky winners very, very happy, while those that didn't take home the grand prize snagged swag from both Gowalla and CultureMap, ensuring no one left the event empty-handed.
